Hey Jame!

I am taking the liberty of cutting and pasting this from a netmail I got from a 
kind and concerned Fido sysop.  I didn't have this echo turned on but now it 
is.

Maurice,

    In case you still read this echo;  I did receive that netmail from you
about that script.  Hopefully, my replies have also reached you...

Sounds great!  Did you get a chance to look at the one modification I sent?  I 
am planning a bunch of other modifications as I'd like to add your script as a 
function of a XML-RPC sever in the works here.  Quite a few of your variables 
will need to be input from a client so that the end result is a Fido compliant 
pkt ready and able for transfer to an uplink(s).  I thought that one alteration 
was an improvement over the typical call(s) to localtime and produced exactly 
the right output wrt DateTime.  That tightens and speeds up the code, or at 
least here it did.  Your mileage may vary.

I'll be happy to post the alterations as they progress to this echo if you 
prefer.  I certainly don't mind.  I like and use Perl so this can work from my 
perspective.

Life is good,
Maurice
